Percocet Generic Report On Phasing Out Opioids By The Year 2021 (Page 3) (Top voted first)
UpdatedI got a report to read from the FDA sent from the DEA on generic Percocet from a friend's family member that works for the FDA. The report said that in their discussions they came up with a plan to stop people from dying from overdoses & addiction. Said Generic Percocet is the most abused medicine on the market. They have in place a 20% tolerance on generic pain medication and they deemed this wasn't helping the abuse of Percocet. People have been complaining in the thousands about Rhodes Pharmaceuticals and others not putting the correct amount of opioid in generic Percocet plus it seems to be making people sick.
In the report not only are they decreasing the 20%, but also adding 50% to the 20% so you're getting 70% less of the active ingredient in Rhodes/Purdue Pharmaceuticals medication. So say you're taking Rhodes generic Percocet 10mg - you're getting around 4% of the active ingredient and in the 5mg you're getting 2%. Not only are they cutting the medication your doctor prescribed but adding fillers that make your stomach hurt making people stop taking opioids altogether. This plan has a goal by the year 2021 to phase out opioids altogether with the exception of hospitals. After reading this I said this must be Trump's doing? They said look at the date. It's from the year 2014 and is an Obama administration idea, not Trump. So no matter how many complaints reports you fill out, you're wasting your time. They aren't addressing these complaints because the two agencies are in on stopping opioids by 2021. Only in America.

What's the matter Tommy?? You a drug abuser and don't want to hear the truth?? Explain to me how I am wrong about Norco and Percocet? I didn't think so. Don't know why I am wasting my time helping people who obviously don't want help and would rather spread rumors to a blog site....LMAO Go back to sleep Tommy Boy

Don't believe me, but Trump said what I've been saying. He's an ***** but he said I'm going to get my ppl to work on a non addictive pain medication. He went on to say these opioids have to go. So he backed up what I've been trying to tell you. There will be pain medication but it's not going to be an opioid pain medication. Again, not an opioid pain medication. You'll get pain medication but without the high of opioid medication. It'll relieve ur pain without the high. I'm sure opioids will be around for cancer patients but opioids are coming to an end. Sorry.
I am in PM for years due to spinal fusions, failed. I went to pickup my Percocet 5mg at CVS today and asked if Rhodes/Purdue was the supplier. If it wasn't for this initial post I would have taken the Rx but I asked for another brand. CVS uses Rhodes as their supplier. THANK YOU for the original post and saving me a lot of issues with the Rhodes branding.
Help please! I am so grateful for your post. I have Kaiser and was started on a new brand Rhodes after taking the same kind Aurobindo for years. Immediately I got sick, flu, congestion, headaches, rebound pain and irritability. Before reading this post I literally took my whole day supply at once thinking maybe I was crazy and had gotten a flu. But I’m not crazy. I’m seeing everywhere about this Rhodes brand. Not only is my pain fully back, but I feel like I’m taking a flu pill. I told my husband it felt like I was taking a fraction with horrible side effects and I was right. Kaiser doc and pharmacy say they are not switching back. I have a phone appt. tomorrow, it sounds like if you complain you are given nothing. I sure wish I could have been made aware. Knowing is so much better than questioning your sanity.

Can you use a different pharmacy? Doctors do not specify a generic brand on prescriptions. Unless a patient requests.
Do you have Medicaid? If you do, Medicaid is the problem.
Re: Happy Man (# 6)
Do you believe me now? You said I was lying about phasing out opioids by the year 2021. Seems like Trump has upped it to ASAP for a non-opioid pain medication. I did read the report & just because I can't put the content on MedsChat didn't mean I was lying. They are going to phase the Norco you take out too. Not sure why you tried to bully me into saying I was lying. I would like to hear your comments on phasing out opioids now. President Trump said it on tv so maybe you'll believe him.

That reminds me of people that drink beer say they drink it because it taste good. I'll leave it at that
Re: Tommy (# 5)
I will stick to my opinion which is based on fact - not your fiction! The FDA and DEA are NOT colluding to make Percocet less effective. Trust me if they were, you would not have seen any paperwork!!
You are full of beans Tommy!! I have a friend of a friends family member, blah, blah , blah....bull!! You don't know what you saw or where it came from, so I suggest you quit spreading lies dude! Misinformation at the least!!
